This trip was well designed. The stops along the tour were pivotal sites in the struggle for civil rights in America and are well selected. The tour leader, Rue, added special points of interest to the general information that enhanced the enjoyment of the tour. I would attend any trip with Rue as the tour leader. She is an asset and an exceptional selection for this tour. The hotels were mostly satisfactory. One hotel was below my expectation for comfort on a trip of this caliber. There needs to be a little variety in the food offerings for dinner night after night.

The tour offered many excellent sites but the schedule was overly ambitious and not realistic for a group our size. The tour director did not read the group well, made itinerary decisions without consulting our own leaders, and neglected to confirm reservation times and locations, meal set-ups, or visitor restrictions (are cameras allowed? bags permitted? what size?). Despite these problems, the tour was a powerful, educational, and moving experience.

Comprehensive tour of well-known contemporary civil rights figures and sites in Georgia and Alabama. Restaurants had more than enough food and gracious owners who shared their powerful stories.

We had an excellent tour including historical information and beautiful Sculpture Garden.

The civil rights agenda was very inspirational and replete with significant sites. In fact, there were almost too many sites to see and process over 5 days. The tour director didn't know much about the sites and basically relied on the internet for her information, which we could all access. She did not organize/confirm our schedule in advance and had to "pivot" too often to accommodate glitches. The bus was woefully inadequate with tools (like a working microphone and phone plugs) to accommodate a touring group. The start and stop times got confusing over the time period of the tour. Instructions should have been clearer, as communicated by the tour director. Also, Rue did not know her audience and the level of exposure to history and expectations. We requested a zoom meeting before the tour; however, Rue said she not accommodate our request. This was a mistake. As it turned out, she left mumbling very 'sour' words about such lethal Christians. All in all, the experience was profoundly memorable; however, there were so many glitches for someone who was touted as so experienced.
